This building doesn't have proverb

 This building doesn't have an elevator. We're thinking of putting a bell by the back door so people can signal us to come down and get their paperwork.

 Even if one is thinking about elevator music, or Weather Channel music, there isn't any necessity for that music to be bad music. I remind people all the time that Mozart would probably sound great in an elevator. A lot of Mozart is very smooth to our ears, but that doesn't mean there isn't an amazing amount of subtlety there for the listener who digs deeper.

 I was mugged once, which really scared me, and we had a manually controlled elevator in the building. This guy jumped me, he had broken the door... the glass of the street door and he had a big sliver of that and held it to my throat. That was the scariest thing that ever happened to me. He just wanted my credit cards.

 If you open the door between floors, there can be a fair gap between the shaft of the elevator and the frame of the elevator car,

 In a situation where you don't think any of your roommates are home and you locked the door before you left, the first thing you should do before even putting the key in the door is turn the knob, ... If it turns, you should already be thinking that something might be wrong.

 If you can control a man’s thinking, you don’t have to worry about his actions. If you can determine what a man thinks you do not have worry about what he will do. If you can make a man believe that he is inferior, you don’t have to compel him to seek an inferior status, he will do so without being told and if you can make a man believe that he is justly an outcast, you don’t have to order him to the back door, he will go to the back door on his own and if there is no back door, the very nature of the man will demand that you build one.
  Carter G. Woodson

 Someone knocks at the door of an apartment to borrow salt or sugar, people run into each other in the elevator, and in this way become inscribed in the spectator's memory.
  Krzysztof Kieslowski

 What's done in the elevator stays in the elevator. Except when it doesn't.

 The building is going to be completely renovated so people may want to come and see it one last time, especially the antique elevator, which is going to be cut up for scrap.

 said Bell, who lives in Boston. ''I would have no problem with the building. The idea of a jail doesn't bother me.

 We just went to feel and having fun. Every time I step on the putting surface I'm going to have fun and I'm just going to enjoy it. I'm going to look forward to every putt. Last week, I said I've had enough of mechanics. Let's go back to when I was a kid. I started thinking when I was 10, 11, 12, I would look at the hole, hit it and if it goes in, great. If it doesn't go, chase it and hit it back. So no more mechanics, just feel.

 That's a real good question. I think the reason is that people aren't thinking clearly. They're depressed. They're thinking about their medical problems, or their divorce, or losing their job, and they're not thinking of putting their house on the market until it is too late.

 Hopefully, in a year, when we come back to Iowa City, it'll be tough to get in the door because people want to come out and hear us. The goal is to keep building, and that takes time.

 All mankind is of one author, and is one volume; when one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language; and every chapter must be so translated...As therefore the bell that rings to a sermon, calls not upon the preacher only, but upon the congregation to come: so this bell calls us all: but how much more me, who am brought so near the door by this sickness....No man is an island, entire of itself...any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.
  John Donne

 I was right at the door of the hallway. And someone said, 'You cannot believe the questions your husband is asking the Israeli ambassador, and he's answering them!' And shortly after that, the doors opened, and out of the elevator . . . stepped Norman Mailer. And Gore was there and Norman punched him in the nose. And everyone looked ? and then went back to their conversation.
